Members nakedzen Posted December 2, 2008 Members Share Posted December 2, 2008 I just got a PSA-1 as backup for gigs and I thought I'd buy some speaker emulation for it. Any experiences on these, I'll be using them live and for direct recording: Behringer Ultra-G (I've heard a lot of bad things about these regarding noise and sound quality).

Members vrm Posted December 2, 2008 Members Share Posted December 2, 2008 doesn't the PSA-1 have cab emulation built in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Polaris20 Posted December 2, 2008 Members Share Posted December 2, 2008 I have the Behringer and the Palmer, and for comparison's sake have also recorded with my SM57 as well as direct into my L6 Toneport for the cab emulations. While the SM is still the best IMO, the Palmer sounds very good. It's got 3 voicings which are all usable, and it's quiet. It even fooled a guitar playing co-worker when I played him some clips of the DC with the SM57 and Palmer. He said "I like the other clips better than the SM57 clips. What kind of mic was that?"

Members PlayaFndr Posted December 2, 2008 Members Share Posted December 2, 2008 +1 for the Palmer. I use it with a dummy load to get power tube distortion and to keep stage volume low at my church. Sounds great everytime, no fussing with mic placement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
